In our modern laboratory, equipped with state of the art equipment, blood collection with the special VeinFinder machine becomes even easier.
The specialised machine can assist with the visualisation of the patient’s veins, giving the healthcare professional a guide for a safer and more direct blood draw.
What is the VeinFinder for?
In an easier and more painless blood draw for groups with “challenging” veins such as:
- Children and newborns
- Elders
- People with damaged veins (e.g. after hospitalisation, chemotherapy)
- Obese people
How does it work?
The Health professional after making the bandage “illuminates” the patient’s arm with the special detector, displaying graphically the patient’s veins. The technitian then selects an appropriate vein for the blood draw.
The procedure is easier and can be less painfull, less invasive, and timelly.
